What are the different groups of the plains Indians?

The Plains Indians are primarily divided into three major groups based on their geographic location and cultural practices: the Northern Plains Indians, the Central Plains Indians, and the Southern Plains Indians. The Northern Plains tribes, such as the Lakota and Cheyenne, were known for their nomadic buffalo hunting lifestyle. The Central Plains tribes, including the Pawnee and Arapaho, often engaged in both agriculture and hunting. The Southern Plains tribes, like the Comanche and Kiowa, were known for their horsemanship and warrior culture, heavily relying on the buffalo for sustenance.


What did the Comanche tribe hunt?

The main prey for Comanche hunters was always buffalo (kuhtsu'), but as in all other nomadic Plains tribes they also hunted deer (arʉka'), antelope (kwahari) and small game such as rabbits (tabu'kina').Unlike many Plains people the Comanche sometimes also caught fish (pekwi), but this was considered an extreme measure in times when other food was scarce..One story told by the Comanche concerns a small hunting band camped in a circle of tipis; a deer ran into the camp during the day and all the people began to shout at it. The poor animal was so shocked and scared that it could not see a way to escape and died of fright, right in the middle of the camp. This band of Comanche were ever afterwards called pibia niwʉnʉ'nʉʉ ("talk loud").


Who made the tipis and where?

Many of the Native American tribes of the Great Plains used tipis. (list of nomadic plains tribes from wikipedia: Blackfoot, Arapaho, Assiniboine, Cheyenne, Comanche, Crow, Gros Venture, Kiowa, Lakota, Lipan, Plains Apache (or Kiowa Apache), Plains Cree, Sarsi, Sioux, Shoshone, and Tonkawa.) They were the ideal shelter for the nomadic lifestyle of the Plains Tribes, as tipis are durable, portable, and can be dissassembled, moved and reconstructed quickly.
